What's in a venue?

 Brilliance, beauty, radiance and shine.

A few weeks ago I was lucky enough to attend DPAC (Duram Performing Arts Center) to see the Broadway Tony award-winning show Billy Elliot.
Knowing the story, I was eager to see the performance.  Everything was spectacular.  The talent was unbelievable, from the singing, to the acting to the creative lighting and of course the beautiful dancing.
There is much to say about a great show, but a lot of it has to do with the venue.  DPAC is the new play house in Durham, NC.  Having been the host of such Broadway shows like Wicked, Rent, The Phantom of the Opera  and welcomed musical guests from many genres, this venue has become a highlight for the Triangle Area.  Its projecting beam of light that reflects off of the evening sky plays a beacon encouraging musical lovers, play patrons and dreamers to visit the buildings 5 story glass facade.
Take a trip to DPAC to see a show and make sure while you are there to enjoy the beautiful building and welcoming decor.
